Web download of  compressed files isn't supported for HL1 mods only HL2
mods.

.ztmp files will be downloaded directly from the server if there is no URL
set (still slower then web download of the uncompressed bsp, etc though).

All servers will automatically create local .ztmp files if there isn't a url
set (someone w/o the content must connect first).

For web download (HL2 mods only) the .ztmp extension is just renamed to .bz2

These are not "zip" but "bzip2" format (linux zip).

Subject: [hlds_linux] Compressed Files for HLDS sv_downloadurl (HL1 not
Source)


Is there any way to compress files for sv_downloadurl hosting for HLDS
(HL1)?  I searched the Steam forums and the only info I could get was
that some didn't think the bz2 compression worked for HLDS, but that z
(ztmp extension) compression might work.  If it does, what command would
I run for z compression?  Is it just zip format with a ztmp extension?

One other sort of related question.  Can I search the archives for this
mailing list, and if so, where?

Thanks in advance.

Drek
